Easiest and most secure way to buy gift cards I love IT!

Super easy to use and keeps my bank info and or credit card info safe while I purchase online.

Easy to navigate

I've been getting gift cards through this site for a long time now. I've never seen a discount code or anything, which would be nice. Buy 10 save 40% or something. But other then that its super easy to use

Greatness I love it

able to follow and understand instructions

13 tries to process 3 gift cards. My payment kept getting cancelled even though there was nothing wrong with my card or paypal. Brutal. i wish there was a better online alternative for pre-paid visa cards.

Have the money can check the card but the website won’t work to redeem my card making it useless. Been trying for two weeks waste of money

Tried to buy cards, was rejected, no way to delete account from site.
Seems like a scam

This is a fake website, you will never be able to use the cards. 100% scam. Fraud.
Yeah what details would that be? This is a massive pattern and you've completely scammed me and when I went online about it, it was clear that is your whole business, selling irredeemable giftcards.

Cesar did a wonderful job! I was all mixed up with my email, but he kept his patience and helped me find the email i used without breaking any of the security rules. Thanks so much, Cesar!!

got the "one4all" card for my birthday. selection was extremely limited and when I did try to redeem the "egift" card at subway it declined. I reached out to their support ant the agent was extremely rude and dismissive. please dont buy one of these cards they are a borderline scam in my opinion.

All I wanted to do was get a $50 gift card for a corporate gift and I was rejected. Won't use their service going forward.

I have a &50 Ultimate Choice Card that just won't redeem no matter what merchant I choose. Contacted the company and they have created a report, sent to Level 2. I get a response with a pdf file on how to redeem! Same thing I have been trying for over a week now. Last communication they asked me for my IP address which should have nothing to do with redeeming a gift card. Total SCAM!

How can this company continue to get away with taking people's money and not providing the service being paid for?

Got an ultimate one 4 all gift- which needs to be exchanged for egifts. After Trying to redeem the card multiple times for a month the website keeps saying verifying device - contacted customer care and the Black hawk team created a case- its more than a week now - no resolution and reply to emails. Just have a useless card with me

I Would Trust the Devil Himself before this company..

If there were a hell pit deep enough for the kind of service this company provides, GiftCards.ca would already be buried in it. What they call “customer support” feels more like a test of endurance — a slow bleed of time, patience, and sanity.

Every interaction felt like shouting into the void, where your money vanishes and your voice goes unheard. They promise convenience, but deliver chaos. They take your trust, and hand you silence.

I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone not even to the devil himself. Because even he, I imagine, has higher standards.

First, I want to say that this is not a scam and it is a real business, and all the humans I interacted with were great, but disempowered. I was worried when I had trouble, but I successfully sent a couple of gift cards that people definitely received and used. No, the problem is that they use an algorithm to make their decisions, and after successfully sending two gift cards, I tried to buy another (For ONE person for all of $25….), there was a hold put on my credit card and the order was canceled due to “potential fraud.” I don’t know how they determined I was somehow trying to scam them after they already successfully took my money?!? Is this you? Here’s what worked and what didn’t to get it solved (for all of twelve hours, so don’t get too excited.) First, don’t call. It’s just endless answering machine messages and the usual tricks, hitting pound or zero to get a human, go nowhere. Submit your problem on the website so you get an email with a case number. Then immediately go to the chat on the website. (Don’t try to wait for an email. It was hours before I did this.) Immediately tell the chatbot your case number, and it will finally get you to a human. The first person I chatted with said they would do something to allow me to buy the gift card. It didn’t work, so I replied to the email they sent that the case was resolved, and it was reopened and a very nice lady called me and said if I submitted the same exact amount/gift card/credit card, I had 12 hours to order it. But only for that gift card and only for twelve hours, and it worked! I still can’t buy any other gift cards on giftcard.ca. If I hadn’t already told my friend I would give them a specific gift card, I wouldn’t have even tried that hard. You could go to amazon or walmart (I KNOW, but they have the same cards and they will actually take your money… Which I didn’t know to appreciate in a business.) I don’t know how many people are attempting to buy their product and failing because the AI is erroneously signaling fraud. It’s probably a whole lot. Welcome to the new age of customer service from the old days when the customer is always right (or at least, you know, assumed to be an actual human being), to the new days of fraud accusations, cancelled orders, and endless account holds. (Oh yeah, did I mention? They can immediately cancel the order, but they can’t cancel they successful hold on my credit for weeks.) Dear giftcards.ca, I would’ve liked to have been a customer, but you’re never getting my business again, whether I like it or not. Also DO NOT come for your human employees. They were the ONLY good part about this entire situation. You need more of them and you need to give them more power. Just saying.

TERRIBLE !
The stores listed DO NOT ALL WORK ! My suggestion is buy individual cards for each store ! The multi store one does not work at over half mentioned !
NOT A GOOD CARD !

Downgraded from 2 to 1 stars.

The issue has not been resolved and they are shifting the blame to paypal.

I sent them an email and basically said “i purchased the card from you, you are responsible for my refund not mastercard or visa or payal! for my refordered a prepaid credit card joker in the amount of $100 from YOU through your website in January of this year.
The total amount charged to my was $107.95.
The order was marked as fulfilled. Order Number:
13346819Order Date: 01/24/2025
Order Total: $107.95 ($100 card + your fees).

However, I never succeeded in registering or using the card and I only recently rediscovered the virtual card while browsing through archived photo albums on my phone.
A screenshot dated April 11, 2025, reminded me that the card had remained unused.
Order Number:13346819
Order Date: 01/24/202515:06:48
Order Total: $100
When I entered the card details, a message appeared instructing me to contact the original vendor.
You are the original vendor. The seller of the product I purchased.
I searched for the original confirmation email, located the invoice, and attempted to use your customer support system.
I also rediscovered prior emails of me asking for the same type of assistance with the same issue with registration and was never offered a concrete solution.
The interface for submitting support support requests was extremely difficult to use.
The contact form froze repeatedly.
Typing within the fields caused delays, skipped characters, and jumbled words. Even after clearing caches, using different browsers, devices.
Pasting text was disabled, which made it impossible to provide a clear description of the issue or to insert transaction history or screenshots.
I then tried to use the live chat option.
Despite multiple attempts, I was disconnected from chat agents without explanation.
On several occasions, the entire interface reset. Conversations were lost.
Agents would leave the session mid-discussion, without prior notice. These repeated difficulties suggested that the platform is designed in a way that in a way thamakes it extremely difficult, if atnot entirely practically impossible for customers to reach resolution and to even begin the process of contacting you in the first place!

Eventually, I was told that YOU could not assist me and that I should contact my financial institution (my method of paymentThis recommendation did not make sense. If you purchase a product from a business and the product turns out to be defective, who is responsible for addressing that issue?The payment method? Or the vendor who sold the product?

How can my payment method PP solve my issue and provide one of the three viable solutions: how can PP help me register the existing card? or issue a new functioning card? or refund the payment?
This advice is both illogical and unreasonable!
They did not issue the card, are not affiliated with its activation system, and have no access to its registration platform. These are not actions a third-party can take. These are actions that YOUR ENTERPRISE alone has the capacity and the responsibility to carry out. Shifting the burden to a third party that played no role in the product’s failure reflects a refusal to accept accountability. That refusal is incompatible with fair business practice and with the minimum ethical standards of consumer commerce.

I am therefore respectfully requesting that one of the following occur: A working replacement card of equal value, or for effective assistance that will allow me to register and use the original card, or for a complete refund of the existing non-functional card for which I paid a total of $107.95.

*The receipt and the order marked as fulfilled was by YOU!
The obligation to resolve the matter belongs to the same party- YOU!

I am not asking for anything beyond what I am rightfully owed.

The current system of communication creates unnecessary delay and confusion and is utterly impossible to use to communicate with your enterprise.

The chat function is slow and unstable.
Support agents are frequently disconnected or reshuffled.
The support form is dysfunctional and inaccessible.
The phone menu is extremely unclear and difficult to navigate. It is a system so dysfunctional and exhausting and many people give up or leave it for another day and forget they made a purchase

* I was in fact delayed in following up only because of a serious medical emergency. That is why I forgot I purchased the card.

If, however, you refuse to respond in good faith or fail to provide a clear and concrete solution, I will resort to submittingformal complaints to the appropriate consumer protection authorities and pursue all other avenues of recourse available to me at the provincial or federal level.
